Review on πŸ“Έ Enhance Your Photography: EMART 400W 5500K Umbrella Lighting Kit for Studio-quality Shots by Jake Meyer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great price Very portable

I found this set good for travel if you have a tote bag and very good for product photography, especially clothing. However, it's rare to find affordable kits with enough daylight output to get the job done. I prefer to use the Limo Studio 6500K daylight, neutral CFL, 105W lamps shown in the photo: equivalent to 400W. These ULTRA LARGE MAGNUM bulbs fit perfectly and are available on eBay here. Except that the umbrella poles barely touch them. If you have OCD this can be an issue, but I find it a minor inconvenience and the socket builds hold them up well. The bulbs that come with the kit don't have these issues, I highly recommend this kit.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
